From: "San Gracia" <sangarcia_57@msn.com>
Date: Sat, 08 Oct 2005 23:17:58 +0000
Subject: From: Sanchez Garcia/Treat as urgent.
Good Day to you,
I am barrister Garcia Sanchez, a solicitor at law.
I am the personal attorney to Mr.Mark, a national of your country, who used
to work with shell development company in Spain and as well a one time
secret agent in transfering of money overseas for the Late King of Spain.
Before his death On the 21st of April 2002 {my client, his wife and their
three children were involved in a car accident along Madrid Express Road in
which all occupants of the motor died}. My client deposited as family
belongings in a CONSIGNMENT {i.e jewelries} the sum of $26 Million in a citi
security and finance company here in Spain, and from there to citi royal
exchange abroad for himself, with the hope of transferring it to his country
as soon as he is on leave, the security company is not aware of the real
contents of the consignment till date.
Since his death I have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any
of my clients extended relatives this has also proved unsuccessful. After
these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his last name, to
locate any member of his family hence I contacted you.I have contacted you
to assist in repartrating this consignment which is money left behind by my
client before they get confisicated or declared unknown by the security
company where this huge deposits were lodged.
The Citi ExchageTrust Finance Company where the deceased had deposited this
consignment has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the
consignment confisicated within the next ten official working days.
Since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the the relatives for over 1 year
now I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased
since you have the same last name so that the proceeds of this deposit
valued at $26million dollars can be handed over to you and then you and me
with my two collegues can share the money. 60% to us and 40% to you.
I will manipulate the necessary legal documents that can be used to back up
any claim we may make. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us
see that this deal went through. I guarantee that this will be executed
under a legitimate time arrangement that will protect you from any breach of
the law. Please get in touch with me by my email to enable us discuss
further .

Best Regards
Barr. Garcia Sanchez.
